A Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) is designed to automate preventive maintenance in order to manage a facility, plant or building utility systems and equipment more effectively.

Here are the primary areas that CMMS can help manage:

Office buildings and facilities.

IT assets, including computers, network hardware and software.

Industrial plants and manufacturing plants.

Utility infrastructure, such as water, sewer, gas and electrical pipes.

Vehicle fleets and mobile equipment.
